We had a stonewall penalty waved away from a linesman stood 5 yards away at guiseley costing us a point, looking at the footage we got the rub of the green this Tuesday, swings and roundabouts. Move on to Dover now, tough game



Well, to be accurate, it cost us the chance of gaining a point.

You still have to score from the penalty spot and only James Walshaw in recent years has been able to accomplish that feat for Alty with any regular success.

The pedant in me is searching for a word to replace regular given that he didn't miss a single one.

Ballers,

Indeed, five successes from five penalty kicks for Walshaw.

Can I just apologise both to Frosty and the rest of you for my part in the abuse - so unlike me but I was getting wound up by some of the postings.

We can debate this goal forever, but the main thing is that the ref and liner gave it so it was a goal - good decision albeit also a bit lucky. My final comment is to be that the picture shown in the postings was not where the ball ended up, it was close to the keepers thigh and therefore a goal. Hence me in the white jacket behind the goal delaying my celebration.

I hereby rest my case.

..and also Michael Rankine is making a very determined effort to remove the keeper's sphericals in the process of scoring!

Happy birthday for yesterday Saughall Robin!!

Thanks Steve from Sale! Had a good one. Managed to get through a steak using 65 year old teeth with the help of a bottle of red  ;)

Let's hope we can get past Dover and make it a fantastic weekend for everyone on here too!

Come on you Super Robins

My feeling is that the ball did cross the line, but it is difficult to see how the Assistant Referee spotted it.

One thing is for certain, it was a stonewall penalty on George Bowerman in the build up....see Michael Ripley's pictures here:-

If the ball had been deemed to not have crossed the line, then it should have been a penalty & a red card for the Grimsby player.
